From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>

commit 60cefed485a02bd99b6299dad70666fe49245da7 upstream.

Greg, you missed this in 3.{0,4}.y.  I'm attaching the version I used
for 3.2.y, which seems to be applicable to 3.0.y.  One or other of these
should work for 3.4.y.
Please don't put this in anything earlier than 3.4 as this was the
first version that exhibited the problem.

I apologize for letting it slip into 3.2; a result of failing to
properly mention the origin of the problem in the changelog, tagging
it stable for 3.4+, and noticing the email proposing it for 3.2.  Time
for vacation, I guess... :/
OK, I've queued up a patch to revert this in 3.2.

Ben.
